About Me

My first love is and always will be music. I've been a creative marketing executive in the music industry for twenty years, most of it at Arista where I oversaw the imaging and branding of some of the biggest and most varied artists in contemporary music including Whitney Houston, Annie Lennox, Aretha Franklin, Kenny G, Carlos Santana, Sarah McLachlan, Patti Smith, the Grateful Dead, Usher, TLC, Toni Braxton, Pink, and Outkast to name a few. During my tenure at Arista Records as SR VP of Creative, I played a key role in the marketing that help build Arista into a $500 million company. I also was personally responsible for developing, branding and marketing one the industry's most successful compilation album brands: the "Ultimate" series. Over the past year I've added management to my marketing background. I'm currently managing Jesse Ruben, and working with Aretha Franklin, Deborah Cox, Chris Richardson from Season 6 of American Idol and the Glenn Mohr Chorale. I also recently joined with a new company called TEAM. Check out our website at www.entteam.com

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Although I'm sure it would be a letdown I'd like to meet Christopher Guest whose films I admire, Johnny Depp and Christopher Bale who are not only great actors but actors that take great risks in the roles they choose. Of course Elton John whose music has filled my life, although I technically did meet him two separate times and both of them I couldn't get the words out of my mouth and I'm never at a loss for words.
